Many historians credit the master elementalist, Umborek Baleward ,
as the last true steward of Fogbough .

He served as steward of the cursed wood, waging a constant battle against
the creeping evil that sought to press the borders of the forest, from his
family's ancestral home -- the imposing woodland fortress known as
Castle Baleward .

Nearly two hundred years ago, Umborek is said to have met an untimely death
at the hands of an ancient and powerful forest evil. His only son,
a master spellcaster named Umdurol is believed to have
fled the castle following his father's death, thus breaking the line of
stewardship.
